Understand and agree I don't like carrier variations. wish they could do what apple did in regards to one model and no carrier crapware on it. However I don't think you putting a rom on it is "supporting" it, more likely the opposite.

fantastic rom! fantastic kernel! ki3 great modem!

come straight from 2.5 just dalvik and batt stat wipe

gave the phone full charge and then gave it a good caning, loads of browsing, lots of wordfued, couple of hours of music playback, hour of video playback, screen mostly 10% which is more than bright enough for me when inside, was 15 mins at full when I was outside

30 mins talk time,

screen on time was an just over an amazing 7 hours although I did cheat slightly, a 10 min usb charge whilst copying villain rom, and ki3 modem to a laptop, to root the gf's s2.

screenshots below of stats and also frozen apps which are not that many.

respect to all involved, will donate soon, ofc to pulser, and ninpo, but is there anyone else that deserves a beer for this rom ;-) ?

Hello,

I want to put this mod/theme : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1154278

JKay Deluxe v11 GreenColored

Does it works with VR 3.0 ?

I don't change for now the baseband/modem, it still in KH3.

Do I need to put ther KI3 before applying the JKay GreenColored ?

I see in this topic this file : VR30_APM_CRT_JKaysCircleMY_ultimate

What does this mod add ? (color of the JKays ?)

Is it better for VR 3.0 to put it instead of the JKay Deluxe v11 GreenColored ?

Thanks for your help ^^
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BoogWeed:
I've had my SGS2 for about 5 months now, but I too came from Froyd Villain on my HTC Hero.

I was very happy to get my SGS2 but wasn;t happy to be leaving VillainRom behind. I couldn't believe my luck when I saw Villain for SGS2 :D:D:D

Go Team Villain!

p.s. I'm guessing the VillainRom name came from the HTC Hero...? Hero/Villain :P
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Actually it's a long story, but the name didn't (as many believe) come from Hero/Villain, although that was convenient, and a good reason to stick with it. NPRussell had other stuff using the name Villain at the time. But due to the whole hero/villain, the name stuck :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Nope. Just use the usual version. The app is the same for any ROM version :)
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] idealforyou:
No NTFS Support for NTFS formatet microSD and NTFS on USB in this Rom.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] pulser_g2:
Try updating kernel to ninphetamine 2.1.3 for that. It's kernel support you need iirc

Edit : actually that might not do the trick. Have you got a link to any threads about this topic?

TV Out

Hi!

I heard that TV Out though the Jack connector feature is implemented in this ROM. Will it be possible to know how it's done? Is it an app that handled it? Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] xxhorseriderxxx:
For whatever reason, I'm having a lot of problems with VR3 =[ First off, when I try to update my superuser app, it says that I don't have root, so I had to flash a superuser root package to get it to work. Then I installed one of Jkay's theme, then I flashed my own personal theme that changes the images of SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk using the VRtheme0.3.4 template. For whatever reason, only on VR3, my theme is causing force closes bad enough that I have to reflash VR3 from scratch. Just for the record and to be clear, I have not had a problem with either Jkay or my own theme on anything but VR3. I'm going back to Cognition I guess until the next release =[
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] kenkiller:
THanks. Deleted and nothing went bad.

But still, I did a wipe before flashing and those files were still there taking up space, strange...looked through them and they appeared to be files from previously uninstalled apps.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
Root issue have been addressed many times in thread.

Have you considered that your theme needs updating and not the ROM. All other themes have been updated for this ROM, and they work.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] xxhorseriderxxx:
I used the latest, nonbeta template, and added images to be placed into the SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk folders, the images that were changed were named exactly, yet I still had to restore. It must be a problem with the way that themes are flashed to these folders. I'm not themeing the way everyone else does by replacing the above apps comletely, I'm just replacing the IMAGES and yet its broken for some reason =\
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chrisjcks:
Yeah, i had it too. (think everyones phone is different, plus everyone uses different widgits)

VR 2.5 is the fastest for me and im sticking to it for a while, its my fav. (plus includes bounce and the bolder clearer font by default :) )
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] soraxd:
in VR 3.0 i noticed when you scroll in a menu, you cant scroll past the menu anymore, theres a blue highlight that appears, and blocks it.. wth is this all about? it makes reading things so much harder.. i used to use that feature as a sort of ruller, to only show on my screen the bottom line of text i read, and slowly creep it up as i read, so i dont lose my place.. is there any way to bring this back? has anyone made a mod for this?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] prosumerhacks:
hi padlad...

does this modified apk also have Sent time stamp included?

thanks!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] BrandoHD:
The information going about is that Apple holds the patent on that effect you speak about (the bouncy effect), I don't know if it's permanent, but they may be using the OverScroll Glow from now on officially.

There has been a mod that will bring back the bouncy effect by kahvitahra

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] chiefroastbeef:
Hey guys,

I came from one of the leaked 2.3.5 roms.

I did a factory reset and cache wipe through CWM, then loaded the villain zip. I am rebooted, but it has been on the start up screen (Sam sung Galaxy SII with the ! logo) for at least 15 minutes now. I've turned it off, rebooted as well, but it is still stuck there. Does it really take that long on the first start up?

[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] freemini:
I like this ROM so far. I especially love undervolting:

200MHz - 800mV

500MHz - 875mV

800MHz - 975mV

1000MHz - 1075mV

1200MHz - 1200mV

1400MHz - 1275mV

1600MHz - 1400mV

200MHz also works on 775mV but I'm going to use 800mV just to be safe.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nikzDHD:
Post up screenshots please as just saying this won't help solving your drains.

Post up the graph under battery usage so we can see awake time vs screen on time.

Then we can solve those.

On a separate note I'm back on KI1 modem as it seems better for data, and I'm getting green under signal!
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] ottxda:
That's excellent battery life! Are you on 3.0 or 2.3.5? May I ask what is your setup: Background data turn off, undervolt...?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nikzDHD:
VR3.0, CF root KI3 v4.2, stock kernel settings. Data on at all times, gps on.

Only things I've disabled is Google backup and wireless networks for location data as I can use GPS instead of it feeding location updates all the time!

All Samsung bloatware disabled, apart from stock email and Samsung Dive always active.

i know these things are more connected with the modem, but i have noticed a significant increase in gps locks and data speeds.

i used to get a gps lock (navitel navigator) in 5 minutes or so, but now i get it in mere seconds, and this is during stormy days.

i also noted, faster, more consistent h speeds after i updated this rom.

for reference, i updated from 2.4.2/ragemod v27 to this when i noted the difference. i did not change my modem. ive never gotten a lock that fast or data speeds that consistent before.

this is aside from the notable increase in volume and sound quality.

could it be 2.3.5?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] globalgpj:
I saw a Samsung GS2 accessory that is a mini usb to hdmi cable.

This is the TV out cable that is available.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] bjarnia:
Sorry. I should've been more specific.

Here is one day. Screenshots taken at 25% battery. Screen on time is just over 1 hour. To be clear this is NOT the day where I ended at 9 hours with almost 70% android OS, didn't screenshot that.

I have the exact same widget setup I had on my nexus one, same launcher, same pretty much everything. I am not on latitude (yet, I used it on my N1 too).

This is overclocked to 1.4 ghz. Let me know if there anything else I can do to provide feedback. For now I went back to 2.3.5 rooted stock but I have Villainrom 3 backup I can go back to if needed.
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] nikzDHD:
Well you've had a drop in battery during the beginning caused either by a freeze, or random reboot or you've flashed something at that stage.

Secondly, you have a number of wakelocks.

Download betterbatterystats and monitor partial wakelocks.

You've got an issue in comparison to mine:

Looking for some pointers. I want to move to vr3 from vr2.5 however I want a completely fresh start. I can factory reset from within recovery but that leaves all the content in the onboard storage. Is it safe to completely delete this, except for the clockworkmod folder, after flashing vr3 and the latest modem?

pretty sure it will be the same tomorrow ;)

If you want to fresh install/ delete away i've had no trouble deleting anything on the sd, system wise. just make sure to back it as you can always replace it if you feck up.

PS. Yea dont delete Clockwork folder

Thank you! Camera is working beautifully now. No FC when chaning front/back camera and resolutions anymore.

Any chance of fixing the Wifi tethering/hotspot? I do use it from time to time when I go out with friends and some of them don't have data. It gets slightly annoying when it keep using "AndroidAP" with a default password.

No a big problem and a small price to pay for using a great rom :) but if that can be fixed it'd be wonderful.

Great rom. Upgraded from 2.4.2 and I'm getting great batt life as per usual.

thanks Pulsar.

ninpo 2.0.5

I could probably get even more batt life if I uninstalled some programs that are causing wakelocks. Unfortunately, I need those programs, but I'm getting great batt life anyways, so not a big deal.

I was in the same boat. So instead of uninstalling them, just stop them from running on the background and use them when needed. I've saved a lot of battery power that way.

Is there any setbacks in uninstalling all the Samsung Hubs using Titanium pro? I never use them. I don't think there would be, but just checking.

Also, will the usb jig work when going back to a stock rom, with this 2.3.5 rom, as I have read in one of Chainfire's memos that Samsung was doing something in 2.3.4 & .5 to prevent the resetting of the counter with the usb jig. Any news or info on a work around?
[Galaxy S II Original Android Development] eozoon:
Re: Samsung Hubs - I've use TitaniumBackup to freeze all of them since day one, haven't had any problem so far. So I'd guess uninstalling would be fine too (keep a backup just in case).

From the first post:

So no worries there. I've actually just got a jig this weekend and can confirm it works with VillainRom 3.0
